Explanation:

The source text is about what it takes to be an astronaut (physical, emotional, etc. attributes), but the research question is about colleges astronauts went to. There's a disconnect. The research question should be related to the source text's main topic (e.g., "What emotional attributes do successful astronauts possess?" instead of focusing on colleges).

Answer:

Bernadette's research question needs to be improved. She can improve it by making it relevant to the source text's main theme (e.g., asking about attributes of astronauts rather than colleges they attended).
